Final answer:
The Nazis convinced Jews to enter the gas chambers by lying about resettlement or showers, transporting them to extermination camps, and using Zyklon B in gas chambers for mass executions.
Step-by-step explanation:
The tragic deception used to lead Jews to the gas chambers during the Holocaust was a systematic and calculated process. The Nazis often lied to the prisoners by claiming they were going to be resettled or taken to showers for sanitation purposes. For instance, as described by SS functionary Ohlendorf during the Nuremberg Trials.
Jews were first registered under the pretext of resettlement and later gathered and transported to execution sites which they were told were for their new beginning. Additionally, the Nazis developed extermination camps like Auschwitz-Birkenau, which served dual roles as forced labor and mass murder sites through gas chambers where Zyklon B gas was used as a silent executioner.
